Apple to Launch Fifth Generation iPad in March 2013?

The fourth generation Apple iPad just hit retail shelves a few weeks ago, but the rumor mill is churning out a report that may hurt the holiday sales of the tablet.

According to Macotakara, an inside source claims that Apple may be releasing the fifth generation iPad in March 2013. The design of the new iPad is said to mirror that of the current iPad mini. It is expected to be 4mm shorter, 17mm narrower and 2mm thinner than the current 9.7-inch iPad. The source also mentions that the second generation iPad mini is in the pipeline, and will come with a Retina display (2,048 x 1,536 pixels).
